Verdict

The Lenovo ThinkPad Helix (Type 3xxx) is a premium 11.6-inch Windows 2-in-1 hybrid featuring a Full HD 1920 x 1080 IPS 10-point multitouch display protected by Gorilla Glass and an integrated Wacom digitizer pen. This specific cellular-capable model is powered by an Intel Core i5-3337U Ivy Bridge processor, 4GB of DDR3 RAM, and a 128GB SSD, offering 3G/4G LTE connectivity via its integrated SIM slot. Its standout characteristics include a 'rip and flip' detachable design that supports tablet, laptop, stand, and tablet+ modes, and a dual-battery system providing up to 8 hours of total battery life when docked. Main pros include its exceptional ThinkPad Precision keyboard, high-brightness 400-nit screen, and sturdy build quality. However, notable cons include significant heat generation on the tablet's back during use, the lack of an SD card slot, and a top-heavy design that can make it unstable when used on a lap.
